I know that in the ecommerce and physical product world, there are a lot of costs up front, which vary depending on the product. Sometimes you’re going to have to spend a significant amount of money up front to pay for a mold, like Bret Miller did with his product Brik Book, which is a physical product with a specific shape that needs to be reproduced on a large scale. The mold itself could cost up to tens of thousands of dollars. In this case, a crowdfunding campaign could be an excellent option to cover those costs. Listen to Bret talk about the story of Brik Book on SPI 217.
It occurred to me that you’re probably interested in growing your blog. I might be able to help.

Suppose I was to tell you that I would pay you up to $15 to process rebates from various products and companies. I would send you a list, you proces the rebates and you get paid twice a month. All you need is a computer, internet access and our training program. Would you be interested? Chances are you would be! I know I would be too! Lucky for you that I stumbled across some crazy back door information about the rebate processors position that's going to knock your socks off. Trust me when I say you'll be so thankful that I go to the bottom of this opportunity.

Use a credit card’s cash advance feature.[33] Some credit cards will allow you to withdraw a certain amount of cash by using it at an ATM. This can help you come up with cash in a hurry. However, the interest rates on cash advances are usually much higher than the credit card’s usual interest rate, meaning that you will eventually have to pay more.
Take good pictures. Some of the options below don’t require you to actually take the picture and sell the product, but for the ones that do, make sure you take a clear picture that makes your product stand out from the others. If you’re going to be taking a lot of pictures, set up a small “studio-like” area in your home with a backdrop and proper lighting to really make your pictures come across as professional. And of course, you’ll want a good camera too.
